Moon-Escape

By Vijaya Sundaram

It was past full-Earth on the moon.  Hopping lightly from her dream-boat, she blanched.

Everything was paved with brick.  Where she stood, it was sideways all the way.  Walking on that surface, she saw, horrified, that someone had already been there.

A bright, smiling voice trilled, “Welcome to McDonald’s!  We will follow, no matter where in the Universe you go!”  She passed a placard where she discerned the words, “… comments and suggestions should be made out to …”

She wafted hurriedly back to her ship, defying one-sixth gravity.

Later, a luna moth fluttered onto the wall of a McDonald’s on earth.
